Japanese people singing, &quot;Soon and Very Soon&quot;. You appreciate the effort, but it&#39;s hard not to laugh at the juxtaposition of cultures.Craig Sturmhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13538285678365271230noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1700797597664934992.post-47921362757780044272011-02-03T22:03:04.178-08:002011-02-03T22:03:04.178-08:00I know!

Yes, a bit overdramatic perhaps, but compared to the blank, fish-like look most choirs have, I appreciated it. =)Kelsey Sturmhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15490937809357946791noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1700797597664934992.post-34548361470748762492011-02-03T21:19:26.505-08:002011-02-03T21:19:26.505-08:00Cool song, but I couldn&#39;t get past the whitene...Cool song, but I couldn&#39;t get past the whiteness of the choir and the substantial lack of soul or rhythm.Craig Sturmhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13538285678365271230noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1700797597664934992.post-14443740010320692212011-02-03T17:00:35.274-08:002011-02-03T17:00:35.274-08:00Haha, yeaaaah!!

But I can&#39;t remember what or why!! So annoying! The middle section was very familiar to me, though...<br /><br />What terrific vocalists, eh? The only thing I thought was too bad about the video is that the choreography seemed a little detrimental to the performance towards the end. Foot slapping? Hm, necessary?? I&#39;m not sold. It seems it distracts the audience at the very least, and the singers at worst! Ah well. =) Regardless, I went away with a smile and a beat in my soul!Pianistic Wordsmithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01209305533762464005noreply@blogger.com
